The allegations in the suit for $40, 900 dam
ages brought by General George Fl. Ford
against the New Haven Union set forth that
the defendant has for some years past pub
lished untruthful, libelous and sarcastic ar

annoy and injure the plaintiff in his bust
ness and reputation; and also, referring to
the invitation to President and Mrs. Cleve-
land to attend the dedication of New Ravens
soldiers monument, set forth that under
cover of alleged grammatical inaccuracies in
said invitation the said newspaper followed
with further malicious attacks upon the
term of the Superior court. Alling & Webb

NEW YORK. April 10.
The features of trading on the market this morn-
ing were Reading, Forth Worth, Pacific Mail and
New England. These stocks furnished 100000
shares of the 10000 sold for the two hours from the
opening until noon. Prices were irregular, but the
fluctuations were confined within narrow limits ex-
cept in few instances, the most notable OF which
were New England which was quite freely sold
during the first half hour and showed decline OF
~ per cent by 1920. At noon about one-half of
the list was fractionay lower than at the close last
night and the other half higher to similar extent.
After midday the market was steady on moderate
trading up to O'Clock, when there was pressure
to sell Reading caused by the calling of two assess
ments by the trustees of the road Of twenty-five
per cent each of the assented $40 per share on the
Reading half stock, which means payments to the
amount Of ten per centum on the par value OF the
stock to be made June and July 1. The selling OF
Reading weakened the whole market and prices at
the close were generally to IL lower than at the
close last night The sales for the day amounted TO
376 010 shares
Money closed at 8 per cent. The highest rate
was 6 and the lowest per cent.

Attorney Fox appeared in the City court yester-
day for James McCarten, son of Michael McCar-
ten. sexton of ST. Bernard's cemetery. Young Nc
Carten used to assist his father in cemetery work
On December 18th he sold a burial lot in the GENE
terry to Mrs. Healy of Putnam street, and at differ
ent times received partial payments for the same
which he kept for his owa USE Judge Pickett
fined him $25 and costs. Young McCarten has
caused his father much trouble, and it s said that
the father lost his place at the cemetery partly
account of his son, who is now in Jail. The father
is poor, but he will probably try to raise the nee
essary sum of money to get his son out of Jail.

My Oldest Child.
Now six years of age, when an infant six months
old, was attacked with virulent, malignant skin
disease All ordinary remedies failing, called
our family physician, who attempted to cure it;
but it spread with almost incredible rapidity, until
the lower portion of the little fellows person. from
tho middle of his back down to his knees, one
solid rash, ugly, painful, blothed and malicious.
We had no rest at night, no peace by day. The
physician did not know them and does not know
now, what it was. Finally were advised so try
Cuticura Remedies. Without the knowledge of our
physician, procured box of Cuticura and cake
of Cuticura Soap. The effect
Was Simply Marvellous,
Using the two together, first washing him thor
oughly with Cuticura Soap then amounting him
with Cuticura. From the first application change
for the better appeared. The doctor said we had
no further neeu of him, and ceased his visits In
three or four weeks a complete cure wrought,
leaving the little fellows person as white and
healthy as though he had never been attaced. In
my opinion your valuable remedies saved his life,
well, repetition of the disease having ever oc-
Cured. You are welcome to make any use of this
you may deem best. GEO. B. SMITH,

THE Secretary OF the UreyUn Doarl
of Immigration, in his report just pub
lished, says: "Advices from Wash
ington Territory indicate surprising
immigration to both the Western and
Eastern portions of the Territory. In
fact there is every reason to believe
that the influx of new corners to Wash
ington is at least one-third more than
TO Oregon. This fact is attributed to
the extraordinary effort now being
made by the citizens of that Territory
in the way of advertising their re-
sources and advantages. Portland
merchants and professional men who
have visited different sections of the
East during the past summer, report
that they have observed a wonderful
amount of Washington Territory liter
ature-far more, in fact, than of Ore
gon, and that in consequence, the in
quiries concerning the former far out
number those relating to the latter.

A great corner in coal oil is immi-
nent. The Standard company has
bought 5,OOO,OO0 barrels at go cents.
and proposes to divide the profits with
producers who close their wells. As a
guard, the company and producers
have made u pool of 100000 barrels
on which the profits are to be devoted
to a wage-fund for laborers thrown out
of employment. 1t seems that the
manipulators are deeply entrenched
and that oil will command an unusual
price this winter.
